Lucille Ball and her husband, Desi Arnaz, set their family lineup for show business when they started their couple comedy show I Love Lucy in the ‘50s. It was a daring move for Lucille as it was rare for women at the time to take the spotlight in comedy.
In the spotlight, they had their children, Lucie and Desi, making Lucille the first woman to be pregnant on national television. About seven decades later, 73-year-old Lucie is showing off her adult children, whom she shares with her husband Laurence Luckinbill.
Lucie took a wholesome family photo on Instagram featuring her sons Simon and Ben and their father, Laurence. It was Simon’s 44th birthday, and they gathered at his favorite vegan joint, Native Foods in Palm Springs, California. The photo showed the resemblance between Simon and his late grandfather, who died in 1986.
Lucie’s followers took to the comments, wishing Simon a happy birthday and gushing about how much he reminded them of Desi. “Happy Birthday, Simon, amazing how he is the spitting image of your father…very handsome,” someone wrote, and another agreed, saying he shares the same eyes with Desi.

Not much is known about Simon as he lives a private life; however, he works as a visual artist. He is one of Lucie and Laurence’s three children, although Lucie also raised her husband’s kids from his previous marriage to Robin Strasser.
Although Lucie is an actress and a singer, while her husband Laurence is known for starring in hits like Star Trek: The Final Frontier, Simon does not seem interested in pursuing a career in the spotlight, unlike his siblings. Simon’s brother, Joe, is a guitarist, while Katharine is an actress with credits in productions like Today, College Debt, and Captain Incredible.
